Servicemen of newspaper “Uralskaya Nedelya” could not go bust

22 october 2010
Board of Appeals of Court of West Kazakhstan Region and Court of First Instance dismissed stepwise court decision. Editorial staff of the newspaper and journalist should recover KZT20000000 ($13605) as moral damage to JSC “Tengizneftstroy” in solidarity order and publish a refutation.

The charges stemmed from article “For the coverage of tender” by L. Akhmedyarov, which was published in the newspaper “Uralskaya Nedelya” on August 06, 2009. JSC “Tengizneftstroy” has begun construction on place of prospective gas – transmission pipeline “Zhympity – Karatuba” before summarizing. Servicemen of JSC “Tengizneftstroy” have been sure in their victory on the tender. Some months later, servicemen of JSC “Tengizneftstroy” won the tender and then they filed a suit to court.

Weekly independent newspaper “Uralskaya Nedelya” (West Kazakhstan) has announced about campaign “Action of Trust”. Readers of the newspaper proposed the idea and title of action. They began fund-raising for lending support to the exclusive, independent edition in West Kazakhstan; raised about KZT2000000 ($13605).

Servicemen of International Foundation for Protection of Freedom of Speech “Adil Soz” suggest to lend support to journalists of the newspaper “Uralskaya Nedelya”. There are banking details:
